Shall we arrange a celebrity fixture against WFC?

Competition in our own Backyard

Table tennis champion Danny Graham found the net again as Watford stormed into the top six. Golden Graham’s 15th goal of the season, and on-loan Andrew Taylor’s breathtaking first goal in 169 senior appearances, decorated the Hornets’ fourth win on the bounce. And as Malky Mackay’s young thrusters became genuine play-off contenders, top scorer Graham revealed another side to his sporting prowess.

T-shirt celebrations may be more retro than comedy repeats on Dave, but you had to laugh at Graham’s no-expense-spent announcement, in a hand-written inscription: Watford Table Tennis Champion 2010-11, Get Over It Lads. He said: “The lads all enjoy a game of table tennis after training, and the standard is so good we decided to have a competition which I won, so I just decided to rub it in a bit.

“I beat Don Cowie in the final – it was best of three sets, and I don’t want to rub salt in the wound, but I won 2-0 and there has been a lot of good-natured banter flying around. “Personal glory aside, this is a team game and the team are flying at the moment.
